It won't be like this for long (Yesterday's Post)

I got a little preoccupied yesterday and failed to post; I apologize. So, I will start today with yesterday's post and hope to get the time later to post today's.

Have you ever had something going on that felt like it would last forever? I am sure you know what I mean...the late night feedings, Murphy's Law working overtime at your house or in your family, rehabbing from an injury, a broken heart from a break up, etc.

While you are going through those things, it feels as though it will NEVER get better. If you are like me, you may have even thought, "It will ALWAYS be like this. ALWAYS." No matter what you do, no matter what anyone says, no matter what happens, you have the nagging feeling that it will ALWAYS be like it is.

Today's (Yesterday's) Word is a quote from William Shakespeare's play, Macbeth, that says, "Come what may, time and the hour run through the roughest day." Or, in my translation, "This, too, shall pass."

Look, yes, it is difficult. Yes, it does seem that it will last forever. But, even in our darkest times, time keeps moving. You cannot live four years in one day, it takes 1461 days to live four years (one extra day for a leap year). As I like to say, "These things take time. And, these things have a tendency to work themselves out."

Keep pushing on one day at a time. Time stands still for no one, it keeps on moving. So, while it really sucks that things are the way they are today, it won't always be like this. This, too shall pass...

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
